The Liver Meeting 2022-Basic Debrief

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The Liver Meeting 2022 focused on basic science in hepatology and showcased various research findings and studies. The meeting covered a range of scientific areas, including xenotransplantation, drug-induced liver injury, omics technologies, genetics, epigenetics, disease models, and more. Notable presentations included the successful transplantation of a genetically modified porcine-to-human cardiac transplant, the role of CD8 T cells in immune-mediated drug-induced liver injury, and the use of omics technologies to understand biology. The meeting also highlighted the importance of location in understanding liver disease, with studies showing differences in microbiomes and gene expression in different liver regions. Additionally, the meeting emphasized the need for advanced disease models, such as organoids and genetic models, to advance liver disease research. Overall, the meeting demonstrated promising advancements in understanding liver biology and potential therapeutics for liver diseases.
